Clarification to scope of RFA DA-04-013
(http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-DA-04-013.html)
NIDA wishes to clarify the substantive scope/boundaries of the
Transition to Adulthood RFA (DA-04-013). Appropriate (in-scope) studies
include: (1) examination of the long-term effects of childhood
interventions in the young adult years, and (2) naturally-occurring
impacts of environmental or systems-level interventions such as
variations in enforcement of rules or other practices across sites
within an organization. However, secondary analyses of longitudinal
data that do not include an intervention are not within the scope of
the RFA.
